H 13. Stretch Your Thinking Jenny and George combined their
allowances to buy the same present for each of their four
teachers. Jenny had $13.75. George had $2.26 less than
Jenny. How much did one present cost?

One present cost 6 dollars and 31 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so first you subtract 2.26 from 13.75 to find out the total that George has.

That would be 11.49.

Next you add them together because they combine allowances.

So thats 25.24.

Next you divide this by 4 because they are buying the same present for their four teachers, therefore all will be the same price.

This would be 6.31

You leave the decimals because your talking about money.

Hopefully this helps. Have a wonderful day. :)
